Hi, my name is

Shouvik Banerjee

I'm a writer and ghostwriter with over nine years of experience. As a fiction writer, I’m drawn to the margins—those fragile, untamed spaces where outsiders live, struggle, and sometimes find grace. That’s where I believe the truest stories are born. My debut book, Seven Sundays, published by Hay House in 2019, is a quiet meditation on failure, faith, and the flickering light of redemption. It follows a man on the edge of collapse, searching for meaning in the ruins of his life. My short stories have appeared in respected journals like The Bombay Review and Kitaab International, where I continue to explore what it means to be human in a world that often looks the other way.

About me

In 2015, I left my PhD in molecular genetics to pursue a career as a freelance writer. Four years later, I published my first book, Seven Sundays, and by 2020, I was a full-time ghostwriter, collaborating with clients worldwide.

I started SHOUVIK BANERJEE GHOSTWRITING SERVICES to help people bring their stories to life and share them with the world. While memoirs and autobiographies are my main focus, I occasionally take on business books if the subject intrigues me.

Seven Sundays

Seven Sundays chronicles the story of 40-year-old Alok, who, despite all his efforts, finds himself in the worst scenario possible—his business venture fails, his wife and daughter leave him, and, on top of everything, he is under a mountain of debt. But just when it seemed like all is lost, an old acquaintance makes a return to his life and sets in motion a profound change.

Written in an unconventional format of a fable within a narrative, the book takes an explorative journey into the nature of failure and why we need to identify and embrace it. Featuring a host of intriguing characters that include the Magician, Wizard, and Maiden, Seven Sundays is one of those books that are as intriguing as they are enchanting and will stay with you for a long, long time.

Workshops

If you are not looking for a full-fledged ghostwriter but still need some support, then I also offer a consulting service.

As your guide I will help you structure the book, fix plot holes, improve flow and readability, and beta read the manuscript. The entire process can take anywhere between 4-8 weeks depending on how much support you need.

Writings

When my written pieces find a place in lit mags, I share them with readers and even do a little dance! You can find them here (the writings; not the dance).

But sometimes, I put them here. These are short stories, poems, blog posts, or simply random musings.
